Shame - Cutthroat

Shame - Cutthroat

$56.00 AUD

Black Vinyl • 2025 Release

Fourth album. Same five mates from school. Way more teeth. John Congleton is behind the desk this time, the guy who's worked with St. Vincent, Angel Olsen, and he stripped the fat out. Charlie Steen's not here to make friends. He's calling out the cowards and the hypocrites, and he means it. Souped up, supercharged, no apologies. Shame's never sounded better, and they know it.

About the album.

Cutthroat, released in September 2025 on Dead Oceans, is Shame's fourth studio album and arguably their most direct. The band, Charlie Steen, guitarists Sean Coyle-Smith and Eddie Green, bassist Josh Finerty, and drummer Charlie Forbes, have been childhood friends since school, and Cutthroat marks a deliberate leap forward after three critically acclaimed albums. Producer John Congleton, known for his work with St. Vincent and Angel Olsen, pushed the band toward a leaner, more confrontational sound. The album takes aim at conflict, corruption, hunger, desire, and cowardice, all delivered with Shame's trademark dark humour intact. Coyle-Smith's side work producing electronic music on tour fed directly into the record's new sonic textures, broadening the band's palette without softening their edges. The result is a record that's tighter, harder, and more focused than anything in their catalogue so far.
